# How to create trading bots

There are two ways to create trading robots. Whalinvest offers to automatically create them for you, but you can also create robots manually.

## **Automatically**

**We’ll pick the most lucrative pairs** according to the performances calculated by our **simulator**.

1️⃣ On the Whalinvest home page, click on the *+ Add a bag* button.

3️⃣ Select the cryptocurrency you wish to invest (here **USDT**). Please note that if you opt for automatic generation, you can only select **USDT, BTC, ETH** and **BNB**.

4️⃣ Enter the **amount**.

5️⃣ Select a level of risk : **medium** or **low**.

🆗 Generate the robots !

👍 A new bag containing the robots will be created !

## **Manually**

1️⃣ Select a **pair**. You can check out the Ranking page which lists the best **performing** settings according to our **simulator**. You can also head over to the [Whalinvest Discord](https://discord.com/invite/Exm77EV) to discuss with the community !

2️⃣ Select an **amount** you want to allocate to this robot. **Only the allocated amount will be invested**.

3️⃣ Select a **sampling interval**. This corresponds to the **regularity** at which your robot will **analyze the exchange price**. A shorter interval will make your robot more sensitive to market fluctuations and take more risks.

4️⃣ Select a **profit management method**. Ex : with a robot working on the **EGLD / USDT** pair: Accumulate **USDT** : Trade **profits are kept as USDT**. Some of it can be reinvested.\
Accumulate **EGLD** : Trade **profits are kept as EGLD**. None of which will be reinvested.

5️⃣ (Optionnal) Different stop loss options are available :\
**Standard** : This option is **risky** and intended **for people who are familiar with stop losses**. It is triggered when a specified loss percentage is reached.\
**Initial trade amount protection** : a *stop limit* order is placed to protect your initial investment when your position exceeds a specified profit percentage.<br>

6️⃣ Select a **Whalinvest trading strategy**. Click the button on the right to view the **estimated performance** of each strategy using your configuration.
